Mr Wiseman attended the College of St Mark and St John in Chelsea from 1935 to 1938 and came wearing his college tie and scarf.  During the visit we showed him a model of the Chelsea site which is situated on campus.  

A retired headmaster of a mixed comprehensive school in Tiptree, Essex, Mr Wiseman entertained us with stories from the old days for a very enjoyable couple of hours.

A very moving moment was when we spent some time in front of the War Memorials, Mr Wiseman knew many of the people mentioned, and told us about them.
